Managed one last ride on the CRF250L before Winter kicks in. Although I was surprised by snow this morning, so that nearly put me off! My main thought was, can I get the bike onto the trailer without falling over...
I drove out to Ganaraska Forest, which is 11,000 acres of bloody amazing trails. Everything from wide fire roads, to fast dual track, to tight and technical single track through the forest. I have some trails near my house but this place is really worth the drive! The CRF does really well here, just the right amount of power, especially for my skill level.
Two things worth mentioning. I installed some tie down strap rings to both the bike forks and the trailer, best few quid I've ever spent! They are rated to 2,000lbs so are pretty strong, and now my tie downs don't bounce loose. Also got a Kriega tail pack, which comes in very handy for wallet, phone, keys etc. I also managed to fit a rain jacket in there. Now I don't have to wear a backpack, which is good.
